HRT unveils car

HISPANIA unveiled its 2011 Formula One car yesterday with just one full day of testing left before the Australian season-opener and some parts caught in customs. Even as Indian Narain Karthikeyan and Italian Vitantonio Liuzzi pulled the wraps off the HRT F111, tired team principal Colin Kolles recognized that at least one driver might have to wait until Melbourne to drive it for the first time. "We are trying to prepare it to run it," he said in the Circuit de Catalunya pitlane after mechanics had wheeled the Cosworth-powered car out of the garage. The Spanish-owned team has tested with its old car, giving Karthikeyan a chance to get at least some laps under his belt.
